Review

  • There is a reason as to why this film wasn't a success and is certainly forgotten. Directed by beloved director David Zucker, An American Carol was meant to be a clear form of back to roots in terms of parody control, quality and success. However this film was far from funny and very much forced. The concept isn't anything great and will only appease to those fans of the director or parody films, but in the end it's incredibly unfunny.

    The lead Michael Malone (Kevin Farley) is clearly parodying Michael Moore, from the name to the overall appearance. There are several notable names in this film and they seem to be trying but everything just falls short. Even with a short runtime, this film feels long.
